Isaiah 43:16-21 (Inclusive Bible):    
Thus says YHWH, 
    who made a road through the sea, 
    a path in the mighty waters, 
who led chariots and warriors to their doom, 
    a mighty army fallen, never to rise again, 
    snuffed out and extinguished like a wick:  
“Forget the events of the past, 
    ignore the things of long ago!
Look, I am doing something new!  
Now it springs forth—can’t you see it?
I’m making a road in the desert
and setting rivers to flow in the wasteland.  
Wild beasts will honor me—
the jackals and the ostriches—
for I will put water in the desert
and rivers in the wasteland
for my chosen people to drink, 
these people whom I formed for myself
so that they might declare my praise.”
